Build and export your test suite for XCUI tests
Build and export your test package (.zip) file, upload it to BrowserStack and execute your XCUITest mobile automation tests on BrowserStack App Automate.
To test your native and hybrid iOS apps on BrowserStack using XCUITest, you need to build and upload both the app (.ipa file) and the XCUI test suite (.zip file) to BrowserStack. If you do not have a .zip file for your test suite, follow the step-by-step instructions on this page to generate the .zip file.
You can generate the .zip file using Xcode or command-line tools:
-
From the schemes dropdown, select the app scheme, and set the device to Generic iOS device.
-
Select Product → Clean (
Cmd Shift K). -
Select Product → Build For → Testing (
Cmd Shift U). -
Use Xcode’s Project Navigator to right-click the
.appfile and select Show in Finder. -
In Finder, select the appropriate
<AppnameUITests>-Runner.appand choose the compress option. This generates the<AppnameUITests>-Runner.zipfile.
Once the .zip file is ready, upload it to BrowserStack servers using our REST API.
